Examples







Basics





Color and Shape

Overall, be sure not to make mottling spots too uniform. They should be random in their grouping.
Mottling must be a lighter color of your chosen base, with a minor deviation in hue. It can also be a fully desaturated color of the base, as long as it is lighter. Mottling may be pure white.


These colors would be acceptable for this base color. They are either a lighter version of the base, or a lighter and desaturated version of the base. The last color on the right shows a minor deviation in hue, and is slightly more yellow than the base itself. Notice that this small change is not overbearing.


These colors would be unacceptable for mottling. They are either darker than the base coat or have too drastic a hue shift.
Here are the minimum and maximum sizes for mottling spots.

Range

Since it can appear anywhere on the body, there is no range for mottling. It must be immediately noticeable in the design.
